what is the difference between a workstation computer and just a regular computor? Thank you?

Often, a computer workstation array acts as a client to a server, often a computer hard disk space, but (perhaps) not the speed or built-in memory. This means that applications that drive (and possibly information on these programs) "live" on the server, and may be revoked and driving / use of the workstation computer, if it needed work. A typical stand-alone desktop will not connect to a server for such purposes (other that can be connected to the Internet, of course, there is a different situation) that makes "life" on their own hard drive, and use their own resorce to do everything. Everything depends on how the workstation and the network when it is connected is set, different situations require different configurations, and what works well in some cases not work as well in others. For example, desktop computers, where I (is that a large mobile phone companies) work we have is configured for our agents to "talk" to a wide range of servers - it tells a whole network to another network, in a sense, all stationary computers and servers can share this "talk" with them, put them access to copies of the program to our agents for their work, and a copy of the program in memory at the workstation. In some cases, the personal computer store some data temporarily, in other cases, all they do is immediately saved on the server (for example, data generated by an agent, but may be other drugs may need to have immediate access to). That's all what works best for a particular transaction, and each situation is unique. The individual jobs can not really speak directly to each other, they must go through at least one of the Agent-agent communication. This is for security, confidentiality and a number of other purposes, it is complicated, but we found it works for us :-) not a lot of other desktop PCs in a secure network in a business environment. It can be shared by multiple employees (sometimes hotseating) is safer for data sesitive etc. According to the company may have its own operating system has changed, the windows of their IT staff, and more likely to work if their power from a laptop? (It depends on the size of the company's own internal LAN) can be an "intranet" and acess to WWW.
